It's that time again!!
Starting Wednesday, January 7th, please join Jason Evans at The Clarity of Night for his tenth, community-building short fiction contest.
Stumbling upon Jason's "Halo" contest a year and a half ago was a great gift, and very instrumental in establishing my own blogging presence. So I always look forward to seeing new participants, and touching base with the veterans who share in my enthusiasm. It's a wonderful chance to give and receive feedback, and to maybe win some booty (yes, Jason is upping the booty--$50 worth for first place!). Most importantly, it's just damn fun.
So if you're inspired by Jason's "Ascension," compose an original work of 250 words or less, any form/genre. Let's all rise to the challenge! January could use a lift. :)

Thanks Sarah. I think I will give this a try. An idea just popped into the old noggin'.
David, I was hoping to turn someone on to Jason's contests. Can't wait to see what you come up with! :)
Thanks Sarah. :) Contests are something that immediately became popular on my blog. And a good number of people have made big time friendships by participating. (Ahem.) ;)
Thanks for spreading the word!!
Jason, indeed. :)
I'm happy to spread that word. It's how I heard, after all! :) The contests really are so much fun--all your hard work is definitely worth it.
I'm looking forward to reading your piece, Sarah! :-)
I'm excited too. I hope I can think of something though. Same as every time I stare at the blank page--something always pops up. Cya on the funny pages.
Vesper, I can't wait to read yours, too. :) I always look forward to it!
Scott, your entry for "Running Wind" was fantastic. I'll be interested to see what pops up this time around. :)
I am in writer's block hell right now. I usually enter a poem, but I would like to do a flash piece for a change. Oh, well - if nothing comes to me - I will enjoy reading at least!!! Thanks, Sarah!
Sarah, m waiting for your story.. publish it!!!!
Thanks for guiding me to such a splendid event... Cant wait to read yours!
K, I hear you. Big time. :) Maybe it has something to do with the after-effects of the holidays, but I find that my own writing brain is being pretty stubborn.
I can't wait to see what you do come up with!! I loved, loved, LOVED your poem last time. :)
Sawan, I will. Promise! :) Not until next week, though. Thanks so much for your interest!
Aniket, I'm so glad you're participating!! I enjoyed your story. :) These contests are a lot of fun.
Hey thanks for the comment on my story...have you posted yours?
Ceedy, mine will be up toward the end of the week. :)
Thanks for your interest, and great job on your story!!
Sarah - I haven't seen yours yet. Hurry, time is running out!
Well Sarah, I have a feeling that you are the "Guest Author" Jason has been telling about... Isn't it? :-D
Scott, never fear! I'll be there. :) Can't wait to read yours! There's a lot of catching up to do today.
Aniket, our lips are sealed. ;)
Sarah.... You say best when you say nothing at all... :-D :-D :-D
